Bradley Beal Returns to Clippers on Two-Year Deal
Free agent guard Bradley Beal will reportedly return to the Los Angeles Clippers on a two-year, $13.2 million deal.
Free agent guard Bradley Beal has re-signed with the Los Angeles Clippers on a two-year, $13.2 million deal, according to his representative, Mark Bartelstein. The contract includes a player option for the 2027-28 season. Beal initially turned down the Clippers' $5.6 million player option for the 2026-27 season and explored other options, while the Clippers used roster flexibility to sign other players.
The Clippers also signed former Lakers forward Rui Hachimura in July. Beal, who suffered a fractured hip during his first season with the Clippers, averaged 8.2 points, 0.8 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in six games. Before joining the Clippers, Beal played for the Phoenix Suns for two seasons. The Suns agreed to a contract buyout for Beal in July 2025, allowing him to sign with the Clippers.
Beal is a three-time NBA All-Star, all of his selections coming during his time with the Wizards. Now in his 15th NBA season, Beal averages 21.4 points, 4.3 assists, and 4.0 rebounds per game, though he has not averaged 20 points since the 2022-23 season with Washington.
